First time to the movies
Today we took both Benjamin and Sarah to a movie theatre. It was the first time for both of them. Sarah slept through most of the movie, but Benjamin really enjoyed The Polar Express.
I was a little worried about several things: some mildly scary scenes, the movie is 92 minutes long, the uncanny valley theory (after reading the stupidest review of the movie), and last but not least, the incredibly high volume of loudspeakers in today's movie theaters.
Benjamin loved every minute of it. He was in awe and his eyes glued to the screen, and he was still talking about it before he went to bed. Now we know that he'll enjoy the book, and eventually the DVD.
